garnet are Nellessen's, 81
inches wide, S.; the ideal
broadcloth. No better for the
name save that it's guarantee.
Antwerp black silks have stood
for 800 years as the best.
Rivals plenty but they couldn't
get to the top. SO hundreds of
establishments make broad
cloths, but there's only one
Nellessen. Wouldn't be SO if
the manufacturer let up in the
least; he dosen't. Material the
best possible to begin with.
Not a scrimp anywhere. The
try is not to see how cheap, but
how good the broadcloth can be
made. Every thought to that.
Is there a new loneliness in tint
you may see it first in a Nell
essen, surely with the first. A
grand broadcloh; the make and
weight specially fit it for ladies
dresses.
A handsome cloth of our
own importation in % shades,
So in, S2.75. The best we've
ever offered for the money.
A little lighter, same shades,
81 ln., $3.50.
\ good broadcloth, same
shades, 81 in, s..
If desired we steam-sponge
any of these broadcloths with
out extra charge.
Give a piece Of Pongee a
sharp slap; if it's clay-loaded
you'll know it by the dust.
Cost us something to learn that.
No clay in our Shantung Pom
gees. Full weight, lustrous,
25l in. wide, I5-yard pieces, IS.
Same, Io in, SO to IS.
Beware of cheap QUALITY |
Louisines; they'll part at the
seams. Dainty summer silks,
but the loose-woven lower
grades will disappoint you,
Don't come here forsuch goods;
the goodness are cheap enough.
Pin stripes, checks, double and
triple stripes, almost invisible
Shepherd plaids, all new, 70
cents to 81.
Surahs in plaids and stripes,
all colors and black and white,
extra wide and heavy and war
ranted to wear. 81.
New Black Rhadames. 90
cents. Try to get them for ST.
anywhere else.
FreCh Sateens are an all the
time surprise. Not that they
come and go so fast, but that
they can be SO many, SO pretty,
50 different. More marked this
year than ever. 1t isn't the
fnger-long bits that strike
you-some such are homely
enough-it's the draped effect
Sheeny, lively, wide awake;
you don't expect to see the
37I cent French sateens on a
sleepy person.
Upholstery Goods are coming
in like an army with banners.
From the wonderful silk sheilas
to the plainest scrim troop after
troop goes on dress parade !
every day.
Let's look at the Cretonnes. !
You know them as Cretonnes,
but they're not such goods as
Creton gave his name to; his
were of hemp and flax, these
are Of cotton. Two great
classes: Morris (English),
warm in color but quiet-de-
signs on toll; French, richer,
brighter, more striking-de-
signes on rep and monte cloth.
Call them Cretonnes or what
you will, they are always cheer
full and satisfying, whether as
hangings or furniture covers.
Novelties were never SO many ,
or so pronounced among them /.
as now-the French like a
flower garden in full bloom; the
English like the autumn foliage,
trost-toched. 5o-in-, SI.25 to
So; Slim, IS cents to 81.
French Dimity-chintz effect
on light round-for furniture
slips and curtains-25 to 50
cents.
90 in. linen for furniture Gov
ers' Best quality, 90 cents;
lower grade, so cents.
